HCM CITY — The global online accommodation reservations provider Agoda has listed the historic town of Hội An as one of the world’s six best places to explore by bicycle.

Hội An in Quảng Nam Province provides foreign tourists with the most beautiful cycling routes, said Agoda, on the occasion of World Bicycle Day (June 3).

Motorbikes and cars are banned from the town centre from 9 am to 11am and from 3pm to 9.30pm, making bicycles the ideal choice to explore the town.

The other five cities on Agoda’s list are Beijing, Paris, Florence, Melbourne and the US state of California. — VNS
